I use it all of the time - but not in a smoothie, I think it would taste really bad. I just stir it into some water and slurp it down then reward myself with something that tastes better (like a smoothie :-)

I wouldn't ingest it. It's used as a dewormer for animals and to help control

fleas and pests externally. What would be the benefits of a human eating it?

I just mix mine in some water, chug it down, and then follow up with some plain water. It doesn't taste bad but it is a little muddy/gritty. You need to make sure to get food grade and Perma Guard seems to be the preferred supplier. They allow other companies to repackage and sell their product so if you buy it, make sure it says Perma Guard. They have their own website which can direct you to suppliers. There is also a group called thegoldensecret dedicated to DE use.

Well if you're a chicken and have a gizzard you probably would. It's also used

to protect plants from slugs since they won't cross it. It would tear up their

bodies.

Hey! I want to trade slugs with you. My apparently-talented slugs just

slide right over it, leaving their trails behind them.

I had to make an electric fence to keep them out of my hostas and my

garden beds.

The 'fence' is actually copper sheeting cut into strips which are then

set into ground as perimeter; I'm told the copper carries enough (soil

borne) electricity to disrupt slugs' meanderings. It does work but of

course I always have to be careful not to step on it; I seem to destroy

my fences as I daydream my way through the gardening.....and it's a

now-documented fact that it only takes 20 minutes for a slug to find and

breach a stepped-on fence.

I do use successfully DE for many things though, including flea

control. As far as internal parasite control a battle still wages

about whether or not DE is effective when wet...but I use it anyway

since it's a no-harm situation. I will say that a 1 " sq chunk of chewing

tobacco works a lot better for goats, though I as a human am not

interested in that much efficiency and the dogs won't touch it, so DE it

is for us.

I mix my DE (Wisdom of the Ages brand) with keifer from raw milk. On Jul 5, 2012, at 9:54 AM, fradal@... wrote:

Hi Lea Ann-

This sounds like something I need and I want to try it. Do you have a recommended place to buy it? I looked over the links you provided and one is a Canada location. One looks like its for dealers and the other one's retail stores are not in my state (PA). I found other sites with a google search but I want to make sure I get a quality product so I thought I'd check with you. I'll check tomorrow if it's in any health food stores close to me.

Thank you so much!

Yes, I do think it helps. Just make sure to drink enough water because it can be constipating if you don't. Sorry anyone, if that was too much information!
